Here I am, talking about how the second wave became TERFy, why it didn't need to, and how feminism can be better for everybody.

The lesbian vampire we immediately introduced to our superhero comic 😂 I love this character writeup by Chad.

Who is Darla Desolate, the spooky baddie we meet at the end of THE FORGOTTEN FIVE chapter 3? Well, Polly Napier has some thoughts. Check out our monthly character file, written by the wonderful Chad Anderson, of The Graymalkin Lane pod fame!

TIS THE SEASON

Chloé Stawski (Spooky Edition 🎃🦇) @chlowski.bsky.social · Oct 21

We crafted something sapphic & spooky for this first @cartoonistcoop.bsky.social's Cartoonber 🎃🦇

The theme was : Reclaimed

script : @zoewithasword.bsky.social
thumbnails, pencils, lettering & tones : @willowsquest.bsky.social
inking : yours truly

One-page comic story.
Panel 1 : lightning bolt hits someone on a bed through a hole in an old house roof
2-3 : a wild looking scientist gal lowers the bed down, excitedly activating a mechanism using chains "Yes ! Yes !! My beautiful creation! my perfect creature ! You will LIVE once again !"
4 : said creature wakes up growling, a Frankenstein-like woman, with scars showing where limbs got attached to each other
5 : she looks down and notices she now has pretty HUGE boobs
6 : the scientist, looking excited and perky, waiting for a reaction "Well ?"
7 : the biggest smile appears on the "creature"s face
8 : she grabs the scientist and holds her tight, burrying her face in her new boobs
"They're JUST what I've always wanted !!"
"Donor bodies are always a challenge, but you gave EXCELLENT direction.
I don't know how much FEELING you'll have.
But obviously I'm MORE than happy to -"
9 : close up of the scientist's face, that the other one is holding in her hands, pressing her cheeks
"Vickie. Stop talking and get up here"
Smiling, delighted, the scientist/Vickie answers : "Yes, dear."

a human being: rarely buys more than one copy of a particular book
a library: often buys multiple copies of a particular book because lots of people want to read it at the same time!

carey pietsch is a hero for banging out all those adventure zone graphic novels. they sell so well that there's no doubt in my mind that they are what allows first second & 23rd st to acquire more niche & risky projects that aren't guaranteed sellers

So happy SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES made the list! :D I can't believe the first book I acquired comes out Tuesday, and it's been surreal to see praise come in already. Anaïs weaves an incredible story, and the team worked really hard to make every part of the book packaging reflect that.

hiiiii here’s a comic i made about having a job and being overwhelmed (1/7)

comic cover!!! featuring the main character, Dina, looking nervous and sweaty. She’s a young woman in an ill-fitting work shirt and pencil skirt with her dark hair tied up in a bun and bangs pinned with a dog-shaped clip. Some sort of ominous shadow looms over her. Text reads: FELT BAD, MET GOD by molly kate young (aka longfusilli) (aka ME!!!!)
